There's a cemetery deep below the sea;
There the space is reserved for fools like me.
Tried to kill myself at least a dozen times,
But nothing seemed to turn out right.
Now I'd rather wait a half-a-century
Soiling the bed all belligerent and wrinkly
Even when I go blind and lose my mind,
Nothing seems to turn out right.
Something's got to turn out right.
If you want, then when we die,
We'll ascend to some place way up high.
At the gate, they'll show you through.
If they ask me, I'm with you.
You're in my body,
You're, You're in my body.
You're in my body,
That's where I think about you.
In my body,
You're, you're in my body.
You're in my body,
That's where
There's no one that imagines like you,
So convinced there's somewhere that we go to;
Not a first-class trip to the abyss
Tell me, do you still feel this?
Tell me, do you still feel this? [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/say_anything/cemetery.html ]
As I drown in lakes of fire,
I will call your name as I expire.
It's the last thing that I'll do.
I will tell them I'm with you
You're in my body,
You're, you're in my body.
You're in my body,
That's where I think about you.
In my body,
You're, you're in my body.
You're in my body,
That's where
Falling asleep, asleep at the wheel
As I approach that cliff, I'm starting to feel
If you could wake me up with only a touch,
I could die with you. Life would be enough.
Falling asleep, asleep at the wheel
As I approach that cliff, I'm starting to feel
If you could wake me up with only a touch,
I could die with you. Life would be enough.
When I face the one who made
My disgusting heart from a lump of clay,
Should he ask what got me through,
If he asks me, it was you.
You're in my body,
You're, you're in my body.
You're in my body,
That's where I think about you.
In my body,
You're, you're in my body.
You're in my body,
That's where I think about you.
In my body,
You're, you're in my body.
You're in my body,
That's where I think about you.

He is obviously with someone who has a greater faith than himself (so convinced there's somewhere that we go to). When the time comes and they die he wants to spend eternity with the one he loves. Since his faith wasn't that strong he is saying he is with her so he hopefully can get into heaven and spend eternity with her (at the gate, they'll show you through.
If they ask me, i'm with you). After all they are a piece of each other (you're, you're in my body) and she was the one that made him better and got him in to heaven (should he ask what got me through,
If he asks me, it was you)

This song is about how god saved his life. "you're in my body" is how christ takes hold within us when we accept him. Should he ask what got me through, if he ask me it was you. He talks about how he's tried to kill himself but it never turned out right, and then he talks about how when he dies he'll ascend to some place high, and at the gate they'll show them through and he'll say that he's with "you" being christ. "i will call your name as i expire" he won't deny his name, as christ asks of us.

A man who feels like he's drowning himself in his wrong doings and even when he is going to die, he will always know the best part of him was you. He doesnt know if there's a god but he would rather worry about it later then stress about it now. His life would only be worth it with you because you are what is getting him through it. And no matter what you will always be a part of him.

I think that the meaning to cemetery is that he has a never ending love for someone. She passed and or is gone but she is "in his body" (his mind) and that is where he remembers them. He is asking her if she still feels that you go somewhere or if you just travle to the abyss. (nothingness) and as he is dying he is calling out her name. So as he is dying "falling asleep, asleep at the wheel as i approach that cliff, i'm starting to feel if yu could wake me up with only a touch, i could die with you. Life would be enough" he is saying only if you could come back, your touch would wake me up, to know that you are here with me, life would be enough. Then he goes on to say "when i face the one who made my disgusting heart from a lump of clay, should he ask what got me through, if he asks me, it was you. " so when he dies, a true death, not suicide. This god or lord is asking him, "how did you surivie your horrid life? How come your here now? " he is saying what got him through life was this person.

A song of love which is being sung to a loved one by saying that it was them who made that one special person who they are and that they dont want to forget them. They are in eachothers bodies and thinking of eachother constantly

My opinion is that this song is about forbidden love/ missing someone so bad that their mind is hooked on that person. The person is anticipating seeing that person again so much that he/she is always on his/her mind.
